COVID-19 Guidance
We note the current issues surrounding COVID-19 (coronavirus) and the rapidly developing public health guidance in the UK at the time of writing. This includes the stringent requirements announced on 23 March 2020, which require UK nationals to stay at home except in tightly defined circumstances (which do not include attending an AGM), the social distancing and shielding guidance for those over the age of 70 or with underlying medical conditions, and the ban on all non-essential travel. The health and safety of our shareholders and colleagues is always our utmost priority.
As it is no longer possible to hold the AGM in the way that the Board had planned, we cannot allow shareholders to attend in person. Any shareholders attempting to gain access to the AGM will be excluded from the meeting on grounds of public safety. In the light of the above, we strongly encourage you to consider ensuring your vote is counted by submission of the proxy by post as detailed in the Notice of Annual General Meeting.
